Ryan Dorsey pays an emotional tribute to Naya Rivera one 12 months after her demise

The justified actor announced that he wanted to honor Naya by sharing a photo of her son that had significant significance. On Instagram, Ryan posted a collage of the late star and her son Josey, as well as a snapshot of her little one showing a thumbs up and a big smile.

As Ryan described the picture: “Thumbs up … just an Emed” [sic] Right. I remember the first time he did it to you. At jujitsu you gave him a thumbs up and he returned the gesture … it was so cute. Maybe it’s silly and makes no sense to do this on IG and get it out, but the whole thing is too. So there is this … “

Although he confessed that “July will probably always be a strange and difficult month” for her family, he reiterated that Josey will always be taken care of.

“Fly up, rest in peace, knowing that he’s fine …” Ryan shared. “He’s properly raised and has a lot of family and people around him who love him and you.”
